About S28.22

S28.22 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for partial traumatic amputation of breast. It belongs to category S28 (crushing injury of thorax, and traumatic amputation of part of thorax), block S20-S29 (injuries to the thorax) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within S28.2 (traumatic amputation of breast), S28.22 is specifically for partial traumatic amputation of breast. Related codes cover complete traumatic amputation of breast (S28.21).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
